The Delhi Police on Friday registered an FIR following a complaint by the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) over a series of coordinated cyberattacks targeting its post-result services portal.
The complaint was filed with the Intelligence Fusion and Strategic Operations (IFSO) Unit of Delhi Police, flagging multiple sophisticated attempts to disrupt the Board's Post-Result Services Portal, a key platform used by students nationwide for verification and re-evaluation applications.
The FIR has been lodged under relevant provisions of the Information Technology (IT) Act.
Authorities, however, confirmed that there has been no breach or compromise of CBSE's data or systems.
The Board said the portal, which caters to lakhs of students, is critical for post-result services, and any disruption could lead to large-scale inconvenience, affect stakeholders across the country, and potentially trigger dissatisfaction among students.
The CBSE formally approached the police on Thursday after detecting repeated and coordinated attempts to interfere with the portal's operations.
The platform had come under attack on June 2, coinciding with the launch of the verification and re-evaluation application process.
According to the Board, the portal became operational at 7 a.m. on June 2 and remained fully functional despite multiple cyberattack attempts on the first day.
Services continued without disruption, ensuring uninterrupted access for users.
Preliminary assessment indicates that the attackers sought to destabilise the platform, block legitimate access, and attempt unauthorised extraction of information.
The Board termed the attacks as 'potentially inimical to national interest'.
In view of the scale and coordinated nature of the attacks, CBSE sought a detailed investigation by the IFSO Unit and legal action against those responsible.
It reiterated that its systems and databases remain secure, with no evidence of unauthorised access or data leakage.
The attempted breaches were effectively mitigated through round-the-clock monitoring and response mechanisms.
The CBSE said the effort was supported by cybersecurity teams from IIT Kanpur, IIT Madras, the Digital India Corporation, the Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre (I4C), CERT-In, and other central government agencies.
